CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Case XX Blue Sycamore Wood Muskrat stands as a refined working knife built on generations of American cutlery tradition. Designed for users who value precision and balance, this Muskrat pattern is purpose-built for controlled cutting and detailed work, whether it’s in the field, the shop, or carried as a dependable everyday companion.
This knife carries twin 2.88-inch clip point blades crafted from Case Tru-Sharp surgical steel. Both blades feature mirror-polished finishes and classic nail nicks, delivering smooth deployment and excellent slicing performance. Tru-Sharp steel is known for holding an edge while remaining easy to resharpen, making it a practical choice for long-term use. The dual-blade configuration gives you flexibility, allowing one blade to stay razor-sharp while the other handles rougher tasks.
The handle is where this Muskrat truly stands out. Blue sycamore wood scales bring a deep, rich color accented by natural grain patterns that make every knife feel one of a kind. Brass pins and liners provide strength and stability, while nickel silver bolsters add durability and a clean, traditional finish. An inlaid Case shield completes the look, reinforcing the heritage behind the knife without overstatement.
At 3.87 inches closed and weighing just 2.5 ounces, this knife disappears easily into a pocket while remaining solid in hand when it’s time to work. Its slim profile and balanced feel make it comfortable for extended use, and its classic construction ensures it’ll age gracefully with time. Proudly made in the USA, this Muskrat reflects Case’s long-standing commitment to quality materials and skilled craftsmanship.
